Highlights in Villajoyosa:
Fábrica de Chocolates Valor
A sweet and different experience. We recommend visiting this beautiful chocolate factory set in an ancient house of the 19th century, where we will enjoy watching the process of making chocolate, know the history of the factory and taste delicious chocolates from the brand. Definitely a neat experience!
Villajoyosa Old town
A walk through the old town of Villajoyosa is essential, something every visitor should do. Strolling through the streets, wandering through its narrow cobbled alleys, enjoying the shopping and many historical buildings are some of the pleasures that Vilajoyosa offers. You must visit the fortified church Iglesia Fortificada de la Asunción in the heart of the old town.
Bol Nou beach
Besides its beautiful old town and its striking colored houses, most people come here in search of beautiful beaches. One of our essential visits of Villajoyosa is the Playa del Bol Nou, is located 2 kilometers from the town and is about 250 meters long protected by a cliff that gives the beach a beautiful wild air. Usually it is awarded every year with the Blue Flag of the EU.
Promenade
We recommend spending an afternoon strolling along the beautiful seafront promenade touring old houses painted in bright colors. Do not forget your camera because this place is worthy of being immortalized! In addition, the promenade has numerous terraces, bars and restaurants with a fabulous atmosphere during the summer season. Do not miss one of the most beautiful Highlights in Villajoyosa
